Chapter 38: Go back, go back. One word difference can mean the difference between life and death!
When Fusu said these words, all the officials were speechless.
You, Fusu, are the eldest son of the Qin Dynasty. Among the royal family, you are the most likely to ascend to the position of crown prince. You are the most promising person to succeed Zuo of the Qin Dynasty!
Even if you propose some innocuous policy, we don't mind pushing it along and blowing it up to the sky for you!
But...are you writing a letter now on behalf of the remnants of the Six Kingdoms?
Do you really not know who these people are?
"Fusu, you submitted a letter today, but do you think this matter should be accepted?"
On the high platform, His Majesty the First Emperor's eyes flashed with sharp eyes.
However, only Li Si and Wang Jian, two veterans, could see a hint of disappointment in the eyes of His Majesty the First Emperor!
The strong bones of the Qin Dynasty were defeated by swords and spears in the world, with the endless heroic blood of the old Qin people.
And these remnants of the Six Kingdoms are the hidden dangers that disrupt the current stable world!
If Da Qin had not ruled China for a short time, these people... would definitely be killed!
Now that Fusu is doing well, he is still writing a letter to petition for these people and return to his hometown to promote the rule of virtue?
Bullshit propaganda! If these people didn't immediately set up an anti-Qin banner when they returned to their homeland, then this bunch of bastards are considered sensible!
The ministers' hearts tightened, and their palms became vaguely sweaty.
Although His Majesty asked simply, anyone with a discerning eye would know that His Majesty was already angry!
The most powerful father and son in the world, no one has the guts to interfere in the problems between them!
"I am reporting this to my father, and I think I should agree to it!"
Fusu spoke slowly, his eyes determined!
After saying these words, countless officials who were still thinking of lining up to help Su couldn't help but lower their heads.
"Father, as the saying goes, the people are the foundation of the country! To educate all people, we can only govern by virtue and benevolent!"
"Benevolence means that when the king administers the government, the people will benefit from it!"
"Now that my father has unified the world and ended hundreds of years of war, it is a great achievement!"
"Of course,"
"The subjects from all over the old six kingdoms do not have enough loyalty to our Great Qin due to the wars in the past."
"Returning these nobles of the Old Six Kingdoms to their homeland will, on the one hand, show the generosity of our father to the people of the world. On the other hand, it can also tell the world that I, the Great Qin, do not look at the people of the Old Six Kingdoms differently!"
"This is the way to unify, Father!"
Fusu spoke sincerely, describing the principles of 'benevolence and virtue' that he had learned over the years!
These words made Chunyu Yue and Shusun Tong nod their heads.
Well-founded, he indeed has the demeanor of the future Lord of Qin! Supporting Mr. Su to ascend to the position of crown prince is definitely a bright path for Confucianism!
"Master Fusu, what you said is wrong!"
At this moment, Li Si, who was frowning, had to stand up: "The chaos in Hexi is close at hand."
"Our Da Qin has not long since gathered in China, but its control over the local area is still slightly lacking!"
"If these nobles of the old Six Nations are released at this time, there may be another rebellion!"
Li Si spoke in a deep voice, his brows filled with worry!
There is some truth to Fusu's words, but not much!
The simplest and most critical point...do these people have anti-Qin intentions?
And the answer is very obvious!
Letting them go back is equivalent to letting the tiger return to the mountain!
Although he didn't want to face Fusu head-on, Li Si had no choice in the face of such a big deal.
After these words came out, Wang Jian, who had been keeping his eyes slightly closed, raised his eyes slightly and glanced at Li Si.
After many years of civil and military fighting, these two old foxes have already had a tacit understanding. How could Wang Jian not know the helplessness Li Si felt at this moment?
Offending the future prince of Qin was definitely not something an old fox in officialdom would do.
But for the benefit of Great Qin, Li Si did it anyway!
In his heart, Wang Jian was also slightly impressed.
His Majesty the First Emperor on the high platform frowned slightly, looked at Fusu, and tapped the bamboo slips on the desk with his fingers: "Fusu, do you know that in the Hexi Rebellion, most of the rebels were noble followers of the old Wei Dynasty?"
"I ordered these people to stay in Xianyang, which is to stabilize the world. Now that I let them go back, how can I protect the various places from rebellion?"
"You are the eldest son of a widower. They don't understand, so you should understand too!"
"What is the unification of the world, what is the eternal prosperity of the family and the country! Doing small virtues and encountering great disasters, is this your 'benevolence'?"
After saying these words, Fusu instantly felt a surge of pressure.
This kind of pressure comes from the trembling heart!
He thought he was right, but his father's words made him feel terrified!
It's not that he can't see the clue, but... Fusu does have a plan of his own!
Returning the nobles of the old Six Nations is the prerequisite for implementing enfeoffment and restructuring. If you don't do it, you will never have a chance!
Fusu swayed slightly, bit his lip, clasped his hands, bowed to His Majesty the First Emperor, and prepared to finally grit his teeth and make a plea.
At this moment....
"Your Majesty, I agree with Mr. Fusu's views!"
A voice sounded!
After saying this sentence, the entire court officials were dumbfounded!
Because... the person who spoke was suddenly Liu Bai!
its not right! Aren't you a descendant of Li Si's sect? And....please! It was you, Liu Bai, who wiped out the rebellion in Hexi! Could it be that he wanted to go with the flow and support himself?
impossible! Absolutely impossible!
Even if another rebellion breaks out, Da Qin will never let you, Liu Bai, go put down the rebellion again!
"Are you crazy! Did Mr. Liu take the wrong medicine today?"
"Is it possible that Liu Xiang became the secretary of Yiwen Palace in the past two days and was accepted by Mr. Fusu?"
"idiot!"
"I can't figure it out, I really can't figure it out! Could it be that Liu Xiang wanted to put these nobles back and then send people to chop them down?"
"This is somewhat possible!"
"...."
A series of discussions resounded in the Qilin Hall.
They did not dare to talk about the previous conversation between Fusu and His Majesty the First Emperor.
But Liu Bai... this is the normal process of discussing government affairs, and there are not so many rules.
Feng Jie, the imperial censor, was originally indifferent to this matter, but now that Liu Bai spoke, he became interested.
He really wanted to see Liu Bai being scolded by His Majesty the First Emperor!
"Your Majesty, what Mr. Fusu said is not completely unreasonable!"
"Since these nobles from the old six countries have written to us to ask us to let them go back, then this matter will definitely spread throughout the world under the promotion of some 'caring people'..."
Liu Bai spoke slowly, emphasizing the word 'people with a caring heart'!
Chunyu Yue and Shusun Tong's expressions changed!
As Liu Bai expected, this matter has begun to spread in Xianyang.
"Now that the news has spread, if we ministers still stop His Majesty, we will be suspected of damaging His Majesty's reputation for benevolence!"
"In this case, it is the best choice to allow them to return to their homeland, promote the name of my majesty's benevolence, and be grateful to our great Qin for its generous policies!"
As soon as these words came out, the court officials' eyes instantly turned unkind!
Is this... a threat?
These nobles of the old Six Nations actually used the voice of the people to threaten them?
The chill in the eyes of His Majesty the First Emperor flashed across, and the aura in the entire Qilin Hall was extremely oppressive!
"Liu Bai, since you agree with Fusu's proposal, how can you eliminate the hidden danger of causing trouble to the people after they return to their homeland?"
His Majesty the First Emperor spoke, his tone full of fierceness!
"Ah? Your Majesty, I just agreed to let them go back, but I didn't say that they can return to their homeland!"
Liu Bai's eyes widened, extremely surprised!
